Pilotfish has cooked up a phone dubbed Ondo which uses a flexible midsection and fine detail dial to allow for mobile music editing. Samsung is already flirting with the musical crowd by way of their latest Beat phones which let you scratch and add effects to your music, but Pilotfish’s input method is really unique. It’s always tricky getting new and experimental stuff like that into the market, let alone usable and appealing to skeptics. Beyond the bendy bit, a removable clip lets you record your tunes whereever they come from, and lets you collaborate with other musicians over the cell network. Getting the sharing service to work could be hard, but if done right, it would be a whole new way of making music. Hit up Ondo for a closer look.
